I know... I'm not saying it's not important. In fact, it's supremely important to expose the truth about our dysfunctional state agencies, even three quarters of a century after the fact.

I know...

But really, Trump v2 and the fast unrolling of the American Reich really puts the Rosenbergs on the back burner. We have much more grave and pressing problems right now and this is not helping.

    The fact that you think pardoning someone decades later and "stopping fascism" would involve the same people doing the same work means you don't know much at all about either of them.

    The state institutions that you and all of your elected leaders love so much both killed the Rosenbergs and pardoned Trump for the exact same reasons. They aren't "dysfunctional". They are doing their jobs quite well.
